I just PSed the original watermarks for avoid troubles

I'd lean towards it being a excellently done custom.
but I like being wrong about these things Sig pictures are to be no larger than 40KB in file size and should be no larger than 300 pixels in height and 500 pixels wide - 2005 Staff | |

Note the regular one in the background of the first pic.
PS--I like how the intakes are done, but why a silver nosecone? | |

Sick, though. Want a Darkcave Custom? Now accepting commissions! | |

Also, IIRC softer plastic doesn't take metallic paint very well, but for MP Starscream to pass U.S safety standards, the nosecone would have to be made out of softer plastic.
The null rays would also have to be softer plastic to pass U.S. safety standards, meaning the black paint on the tips wouldn't stick too well. | |
